I&#39;ve been running out of room for a while, too (and I do source many recipes online), but there is nothing quite so real and simple than the feel of a paper-paged book.<br /><br />Thanks so much, Gulmohar!<br /><br />Val - Thank you. Meat is the farthest thing from your mind when you smell this.<br /><br />Thanks, Priya. Very kind of you. : }<br /><br />Thank you very much, Johanna. Yup, my mother can never be accused of being dull or mainstream. ; )<br /><br />Hi, Kirsten! Thanks. So, another who can relate. : )<br /><br />Welcome, Sanjeeta! Thanks so much. I really enjoyed this recipe and will definitely make it again. So easy and tasty.<br /><br />Lori - Thanks for sharing about your dad. He&#39;s sounds like a lot of fun and an adventurous eater. <br /><br />Sra - I presented the conversation exactly as it played out; it was completely deadpan - that made it all the more funny.<br /><br />Thanks, Simona. The red palm oil really colored up the burger with a stain similar to turmeric.<br /><br />Hi, Vanessa! Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the world tour. : }<br /><br />Champa - Thanks so much. I need to have a talk with your mother. <br /><br />Welcome, Pavithra! Thanks for your visit and kind kudos.<br /><br />Jessica - It&#39;s very different. I enjoyed it; so did my spouse, but he passed on seconds. ;PSusanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14970742141705361136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6487763673634858522.post-51946208648477539342010-12-13T17:30:22.655-05:002010-12-13T17:30:22.655-05:00This is a really interesting dish.

I have to admit I used to be quiet the cookbook addict, but have slowed down in recent years only because I don&#39;t always have a lot of space to store them and find myself more often than not going to my computer in search of inspiration. Instead, I&#39;ve been borrowing quite a few cookbooks from the library and storing the recipes in my handy recipe database on my computer.Kellyhttp://www.pink-apron.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6487763673634858522.post-40069150141638146202010-12-03T10:38:12.685-05:002010-12-03T10:38:12.685-05:00Your akara look so delicious.
